this city at 1 p. m. yesterday, having left
Milwaukee ut 10 o'clock after q drive
about the Cream city. When the

was greeted with enthusiastic cheers
from the 10000 persons assem-
bled procession was nC once formed
and marching through the principal streets
escorted the President to the east front OF
the Capitol, where formal address of well
come was delivered by Chief Justice Cole,
Of the Wisconsin Supreme Bench Presi-
dent Cleveland responded briefly.
President Cleveland was exceedingly
weary when he reached this city, but
seemed In good spirits nevertheless. At the
public reception in the State House he re-
quested n chair for his wife, who sat as the
multitude surged by. The President shook
hands for while, and the manner
in which he went at it showed 1t was
n barbarous imposition on him. He first
stood on one foot, then shifted his
ponderous weight to the other, and finally,
with a sigh, settled squarely back, and
thereafter extended his hand no more to the
thousands passing before him. He looked
weary, and felt very much so. His hand
was swollen and painful from the shaking
given In Milwaukee.
After the reception visit was paid to the
grounds where the county fair is being held
After q short stay here the party were
driven to the residence of Postmaster-Gen-
eral Villas, where q dinner was given, only q
select few, however, sitting down with the
distinguished guests During the evening

respects and there were serenades by the
Madison mannerchor, Banjo Club and o
